Pro tip for home cooks.(since most of us don't have flat top grills) Whether you buy pre-shaved or shave your own: put in freezer for about a half hour. Then move to cutting board and pre-chop the steak. It breaks up much easier without trying to manipulate 2 spatulas in a regular pan. I'm also a proponent of cooking at higher heat to get a sear and browning to the steak.
Credentials: I shaved 40-50 pounds of steak, by hand, every day for about 6-7 years and cooked thousands of cheese-steaks.
Thanks!
Nice! Where did you work, so few places put any sear on their meat, or was the searing only done at home?
Would love to try one if your sandwiches. Where do you work?
Being from Philadelphia, I’m glad someone finally realized that original cheesesteaks don’t come with mushrooms and peppers. Well done my friend
Amen. Every restaurant does that for some odd reason.
Well, in Philly there are two restaurants that claim they invented the cheese steak. And they both serve them plain or with pepper or onions or both. Just like any sandwich, you can add toppings. Doesn't mean it's not a Philly cheese steak
@@kingxiii4680 Pat's and Geno's? The tourist trap spots that taste like trash and nothing like an actual good cheesesteak? Call it a cheesesteak if you want, but that's not a genuine Philly cheesesteak. It's like looking at a taco pizza and planting an Italian flag on it. That shit isn't authentic.
@@TheCannonsMouth Pat's King of Steaks (also known as Pat's Steaks) is a Philadelphia restaurant specializing in cheesesteaks, and located at the intersection of South 9th Street, Wharton Street and East Passyunk Avenue in South Philadelphia, directly across the street from rival Geno's Steaks. It was founded in 1930 by brothers Pat and Harry Olivieri, who are credited with the creation of the cheesesteak.
How do you feel about yourself now you complete idiot? 1930! Explain to me again what makes a Philly cheesesteak more "genuine and authentic" than the original restaurant that invented them. You probably get yours from some place that hasn't been open for a year, ran by hipsters with blue hair and it's probably soy protein and not even beef. Go ahead, I'll be waiting...
@@kingxiii4680In Philly, nobody calls it a Philly cheesesteak, it's called a cheesesteak. 2 places do not claim to have invented it, Pat's invented it. And peppers were not offered for years. Roll. Steak, cheese, and onions are the traditional ingredients. While you are allowed to add anything you like to your sandwich, when you add something to the recipe, you have changed the name of the item. There is such a thing S a traditional recipe, no matter what people have done since then.
AS A PHILADELPHIA NATIVE….
I think you did amazing. Honestly you covered every method, ingredient and execution perfectly. Even the debate about which cheese was handled 💯. This is the first “Philly cheesesteak” video on RUclips that has earned any respect or praise! Thanks for doing this!
Oh come on! PHILLYS BEST, the heat. Definitely WC winning. Also FedEx the bread.
Charlie, you’ve once again mastered another one of my favorite comfort foods. First a REAL NY slice, and now REAL Philly cheesesteaks. The commitment to authenticity impresses me so much and is so appreciated to someone like me who is so nit-picky about details. Also - loving your pizza posts on Instagram! Keep ‘em coming! ❤️
I appreciate it!!
My thoughts exactly
@@CharlieAndersonCookingn the immortal words of Dewey Cox: "wtf was he talkin' 'bout?" Jesus, get the mashed potatoes out of your mouth!
NY, knows shit all about Cheese steaks, js....respect
wow I’m excited for this channels future. Most RUclips recipes don’t pay as much attention to detail when making “THE BEST NY SLICE AT HOME”…you clearly care about the experience. YOU DA GOAT
As a fat Philadelphian that eats maybe 150-200 cheesesteaks a year for 40 years, this is the best homemade cheesesteak I’ve see on outside of Philly ever. You nailed it my friend. I’d even pay for that
Thats funny dude! You probably know where to go if I go to Philly never been but I love food , but there’s no way I’d have the patience to make my own rolls, I just want the sandwich.
i wish i could eat that many without feeling guilty
Ya aint gonna be around that long eating 200 cheesesteaks a year at your age bro. lol Cool off a little bit.
Born in Philly, moved away at age 2. Wish I grew up there, seems cool. Anyhoo I just ate a cheesesteak in Fla and based on this video they did it justice.
Another excellent video, Charlie! I want to see your channel expand beyond your wildest dreams. You deserve a million subscribers.
Thank you!
Amazing video and series overall. I’ve had a great time seeing you experiment and craft an authentic philly cheesesteak recipe! I can’t wait to see what you do next!
Respect for the time and effort you put into these series. Can’t wait to see what’s next
Wow! Thanks for another incredible series. That Made In griddle is definitely in my future. I recently went to Gordon Food Service to get some more Grande cheese and was thrilled to see that mine actually sells Amoroso rolls in the freezer section. Cheesesteaks are in my future and I look forward to trying your cooking technique and making a custom cheese sauce. It is truly a joy to watch your videos and I love the level of detail you go into and how you really explore every variable. I can't wait to see what you do next.
I was hooked when I first came across your NYC pizza slice series, and as a Philadelphian I have loved following along with this cheesesteak series - you nailed both!!
Awesome job, Charlie. Can't wait to see what you cook up next!
Your pizza series got me hooked. Can’t wait to try this one!
Please keep on making the best recipe research videos on RUclips!
im saving up enough goo to use for this recipe.
hopefully its all sticky
Absolutely love the way you dive into these signature regional dishes and develope a recipe across the series that is simple enough to tackle at home. Cant wait to see whats next
i love how you dive in at Chinese buffets. its admirable how much food you can down 👍😘
thanks for all your research and recording work!
much appreciated and reminds me of my own methodology when trying to master home versions of my favorite foods!
Always enjoy your videos, Charlie! Keep it up!
Hey Charlie! I'm from Philly and wanted to mention about cheeses and "authenticity": There's always going to be a purist about any hometown food - I used to be that guy myself. Over the years I've pretty much had every cheesesteak from all over the city and no one is more authentic than another. I've had whiz with sliced steak from Steve's, a Cheetos cheesesteak inspired by Gritty from Joe's, a cheesesteak hoagie (lettuce tomato onion) from any deli or pizza shop, and just the classic prov/american cheesesteak. They all rock and hit the spot and still are considered authentic cheesesteaks imo (not to mention peppers and mushrooms too).
When it comes to authenticity it's about the method and the main ingredients that truly separates a cheesesteak from a chopped cheese. Brother, you've absolutely nailed it in this series! Cheers :)
Dude. You did it right. I can't wait to try your roll recipe. Thanks for sharing this.
wow, I really appreciate the level of detail and time you spent on this recipe.
I like your honesty in assessing your own vs. others. It's great that we can make most things at home to our liking about as good as anywhere. And you saved a lot of people so much time.
Another awesome well done series! I've made the NY pizza now I have to make these. Can't wait to see what you have in store next
OUTSTANDING! I appreciate all of your experimenting on the rolls, I've been on the same mission, to find a roll like Amoroso's. Yours looks as close as anybody could get, and I know that took a lot of testing on your part, so Kudos! Many other great tips in this video too!
Going to try it this week and cant wait. Great video and I am glad to see people still trying to explore food production.
So fantastic!! Thank you for going the extra mile on this 😊 If Oklahoma ever moves off of the surface of the sun, I'll definitely be making these.
I did the bread. It worked wonderfully. I didn't need to rely on steam, just covering the bread while they're in the oven did the job. Thanks for the great effort you put into this ❤
Charlie for the win the guy never misses
you ever miss and get her in the eye?
Magnificent! Thanks for all the research and comprehensive videos. I’d love to try this one day. Can’t wait to see what you tackle next!
I love this content. It makes me want to set aside some time on a weekend and go for it! I made the pizza, now I'll make the cheese steak.
Thanks Charlie. Documentary and Recipes. Recimentary. Docipes. Whatever. Interesting and helpful. Keep 'em coming. I'll keep visiting.
If you are not in the Philadelphia area & you just want to buy rolls, WaWa sells them at their deli-counter. WaWa buys half baked rolls from Amoroso to make their hoagies. WaWa finishes baking the rolls as needed in the store to fill the store with fresh baked bread smell. Wawa's "Amoroso" rolls are fresher, larger, & you can buy one or as few as you need, the Amoroso sold in supermarkets are by the dozen in sealed plastic bags.
BTW as soon as you can take the WaWa roll(s) out of the paper WaWa wraps them in because the paper will suck the moisture out of the roll(s) & transfer it/them to a zip-lock bag or they'll turn rock hard over night.
apparently my secret is out
I don't usually comment on the ad, but that was some excellent sponsor integration there. Nice job!
Haha thanks!
You couldnt be more on-point and thorough. Awesome video
Every moment of this video is pure gold.
Just one more tip, when you cut the bread roll... take some of the bread out brush it with melted butter and then put it on the stovetop get a light Brown crisp to it then put all your your meats and cheese Etc on it. Taste so much better that way!
Glad you gave the sodium citrate a real chance (from our 1st comments on another video) and it made it into the final product. Great series too. Loved all the content. I have the next 9 days off from work, so I guess I know what I'm making twice. Thanks Charlie
Use lard in the dough, instead of Crisco. It will emulsify as effectively as Crisco, but it won't kiII you like Crisco (plus, it enhances the flavor of the roll).
Fun fact: Cubans use lard in their world-famous sandwich rolls.
Also, for _much better/easier_ browning, add about 1 tsp of baking soda per 3lbs of meat. Work it into the meat and let rest for a few minutes before heading to the flat top. (Thank me later.)
ruclips.net/video/vWmeGUCilZ0/видео.html
Yeah Vegetable shortening, hydrogenated oils like rapeseed will kill ya. I would just use beef tallow for that extra beefy flavour.
thats a government lie
Yeah, crisco is so 20th century
Agreed. It's Pennsylvania. Lard is what nearly everything is cooked with that a lot of outside sources never really pick up on. PA Dutch culture goes hard for lard due to it's culturally what they'd use back in the olden days before corn oil or vegetable oil was a big deal so they never saw fit to replace it.
@@scsherman207 that's because pig fat burns at a super high level. Ancient Greeks used to pack it on their enemies bronze cover gates and set it on fire so it would melt it down. It's why other cultures made ghee, all for flavor. Modern oils don't really have too much flavor. Lard and ghee do
Congrats on a great series!
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Great job!
Man, oh man - just baked some of your rustic style rolls this afternoon and am waiting for the family to get home so I can make the cheesesteaks. Super pumped! I live outside of Philly and have been trying to nail the perfect hoagie roll for a while using a ton of different recipes, and I think yours may finally be what I'm looking for!
Wow, I've never watched one from you before and expected to be disappointed, but WOW, great work and I am now subbed! Nothing short of excellent!
Philly Philipino here. Good work. Binge watched your whole Philly cheesesteak journey. Amazing stuff and I'll replicate. Thank you!
Another wonderful video, thank you 🙏🥰
I just found your channel. I’ve binged like 4 videos already. Great content!
Bro you are the one person who understands. Most importantly about letting it melt and chop it in. Absolutely 100% with the cooper sharp.
Very helpful tips bro. Thank you
You've got to respect the amount of hard work that this man puts into this and other projects for all of our benefit. Top tier videos, Charlie. I really appreciate the amount of work that went into this video. I'm looking forward to trying it soon but I'd be remiss if I didn't pay my respects. Thanks again!
respect for gooing on the cheesesteak
Great series!
Excellent work my friend! This is what I have been trying to do for a couple of decades--no doubt many of your followers as well. 🙏😄
Thank you for your outstanding diligence. ♥
I think you have nailed it, once, and for all! 😂😋
There’s so many FoodTubers out there, I love em all. But I like the science and very Laymen’s explanations you use. I appreciate you man.
Cooper American is all I use for everything. Burgers, cheesy rice, cheese steaks, you name it.
Also the main reason you see that the restaurants don't use beef tallow is because they're already rendering the fat on their griddles all day. Using tallow at home is an attempt to recreate that kind of rendered all day flavor.
I really appreciate that you post the process videos. Hearing about the stages of research is so much better than just hearing, "I did some research" -- what were the results??? You also do a great job balancing reviewing prior videos without making it a bore for anyone who has seen them
thanks mate, well done. brilliant!
My wife did her undergrad in Philly and we have "victory cheesesteaks" after an Eagles win. I personally like using green pepper and onion in mine and I use provolone and mozzarella slices since the mozz melts super well. Like you said though, you can make it how you want.
I also get my ribeye at Publix down here and their bakery bakes essentially those same rolls you made and their butcher department will slice a fresh ribeye paper thin for me. Definitely a fan of these things.
Great job man. I will be trying this myself soon.
I'd argue cheese whiz is just a little more unique than the other options, really brings it to that gritty philly status.
Both look amazing 🔥
It's awesome you got it looking perfect! It sure makes me hungry seeing it!
I see you grindin' my dude, love the videos keep it up!
I have to say that, with all of the "how to make real Philly cheesesteak" videos I've seen on RUclips that were clearly made by people who've never been within 500 miles of Philly, I was super skeptical when your video popped up in my feed. But I have to say, these are the most legit cheesesteaks I've seen outside of Pat's and I can't wait to make them for myself!
The funny thing about this is, many of the so called most famous spots for this dish aren't that good amoung some RUclipsrs who tested them.
From Philly, and I gotta say, I'll be trying this out. Growing up in the burbs, I got used to actual good cheesesteaks instead of the crap Pat's and Geno's shlep out.
I've messed around with cheesesteaks at home before, but everything I saw you do here really speaks to my specific tastes. And I have already been using Sodium Citrate to make the perfect ultra cheesy no-bake homemade mac n cheese for years, and I can't wait to try an American Provolone blend.
I'm originally from Philly. I found Amoroso's sub rolls at my local Aldi here in NC. Surprise, surprise!!
Bro you deserve way more subs/views. Your content is proper - wishing you all the best in getting your first 1mill asap
Your attention to detail is spot on. Not only do you understand every little detail that makes an authentic cheesesteak, but you understand and acknowledge the argument between the three cheeses. I personally usually get a cheesesteak with fried onions and American cheese. There are places in the suburbs that do not melt the cheese through the steak. They just lay it on top and put the roll on top of it... what a disgrace. I also like that you did not mention marinara sauce at all... the farther you go from Philly, the more people think cheesesteaks are supposed to have marinara sauce dumped on it. Dis-gu-sting.
Im from Philly, now living in Seattle. Without the correct roll, it won’t come close to a Philly. To make at home I purchase French rolls from a Pho restaurant which they use for their Banh Mi sandwich’s. They are soft and chewy on the inside and crusty on the inside. Perfect!
Well done man! Just subscribed and I am about to order that griddle top at Made-In. Keep the content coming!
Nice dude. Wow. Great details.
Now that’s commitment you made the bread too
Wish I could sub twice, man. Love the scientific approach. Keep up the good work!
Spot on, brother! Well done.
Incredible video
Most places in philly do not bother searing their beef, if you watch them all they do is steam it, they even squirt water on the raw meat as soon as it hits the grill-top so it cook faster. When making yours at home sear your beef as if you're making a smashburger, it is all about the sear. And there is a huge leeway between seared, chard, & ash, push your searing as far as you dare, more sear more flavor. And a little charing will not kill you think of it as beef bacon, don't eat ash.
Just found your channel, this vid was recommended. Loved it! Subbed and belled. Great work!
I love the scientific method thank you so much
Great video, Charlie. With content like this, youll be at a million subs in no time.
as someone who used to live in the US and moved out videos like this are great to have those foods i have no way of finding in my current household
Fantastic bread rolls!! Thank you!!
From this point forward, when people search "Philly Cheesesteak" or "How to make a Philly Cheesesteak." This video will be in the top if not the #1 result. I'm so glad to be on this journey with you, and very excited to see where your career takes you. Thank you!
Well done!
All I can say is you are doing great work. I mean you deep dived this hardcore, and I appreciate that because I love a good cheese steak and it's hard to come by where I am at (the mid south).
I just found your channel and damn! Thank you! Living in the rural south I don’t get all these amazing items I had while traveling. I’ve already made your pizza dough and can’t wait to make a cheesesteak! Seriously thank you for sharing.
I'm a Philadelphia native and I have to say you nailed it! Well done!
I'm so thankful that I have access to a full restaurant kitchen so I can use the actual flat tops and slicers.
I am just not a fan of whiz and I really don't want my provolone melted, but your video makes me want to try that provolone American cheese style... One day, I'll make this whole thing... It just looks so perfect and following this whole series just makes me appreciate your effort to nail this. I think a roast pork sandwich is more authentic to Philly than a cheesesteak anyways, so I'm excited to use that seeded roll for one of those sandwiches one day too... Great job, can't see what you dive into next!
Bravo, great content.
Guy from Philly here - can confirm: a cheesesteak is great wiz-wit, provolone, or Cooper sharp (American). They all good! Just make sure it’s got fried onions and NOTHING ELSE. Gonna have to try Charlie’s recipe. This seems great!
Awesome series!!
Sooooooo....whats next?!
I've been enjoying this series as it has come together, Charlie. I liked the pizza series too, but I think this one got into a little more technical nuance that allows plenty of modifications. One variable, albeit a minor one, that you touched on briefly here is how to cut the onions. I find cutting them into half rings (where you can see the macro structure across the slice) eats a little sweeter than diced or strips. Good work, sir!
never watched this but ik this is the best video i’m ever gonna see in regards to philly cheesesteak
Wow, great video! Clicked on the right one! Thank you!
I don’t know where you’re from but I live a few minutes from Philly. People trying to replicate this always mess it up (on tv, social media, recipes online, etc). You nailed it!!!!!!!
ok...this has been a HUGE life goal for me. thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m from Philly (born and raised) and wrapping it after is a game changer! Making cheesesteaks for dinner tonight, so I figured I’d brush up a little. Well down!
I officially crown you as a Philadelphian 👑
For anyone that has room outside like a house or apartment with private patio or balcony, I would highly recommend a larger outdoor griddle like a 36” Blackstone. The small stovetop one might work for a small apartment with no outdoor area. But nothing else beats having a huge piece of carbon steel to cook on. Plus ergonomically it looks like it would be much easier having the griddle wider side to side rather than front to back.
Watch, the end twist here is that Charlie is the owner of Charley's Cheesesteaks and he owns a half billion dollar business and he's just drumming up business with these awesome videos! Go Charles!!
I can’t believe that you don’t have more followers. You will get there and you definitely deserve it !
You got it boi! Props from Philly!
Amazing sandwich brotha 🎉❤
I came for the cheesesteak but I got the most out of the tips and tricks for the bread making and cooking! We make all our bread and rolls from scratch due to severe food allergies, and your tips are invaluable ❤ Thank you!
The best and most comprehensive video on the cheesesteak I’ve seen! Great job
You have me at "It's all about the roll". 100% correct.
Need to try this
